It's a new astrological year! We have the Gregorian calendar that runs from January 1 to December 31 of each year.
The astrological calendar begins on the first day of the Aries season and the Spring Equinox (approximately March 20 and 21 of each year) and continues until the last day of the Pisces season (usually March 19 or 20 of each year).
A New Astrological Year
This is a great time for starting anew and coming up with innovative ideas. After a long and chilly winter, we usually think of Spring as the season in which flowers begin to bloom and the earth begins to turn green again.
Take some time, in light of this magic, to contemplate the many ways in which you and your life are “blossoming” and reawakening.
The beginning of the astrological new year is a time for us to let go of the disillusionment and daydreaming that the Pisces season can bring and finally step into the fiery, awakened Aries energy that asks us to look at life with fresh eyes and a new perspective.
As the astrological new year approaches, this bold and fiery energy is precisely the type of force that we can grasp.
We will be confronted with powerful astrological shifts, or transits, over the course of the next 12 solar seasons, beginning with the Aries season and ending with the Pisces season in 2024, which will encourage our development and transformation.
It is important to understand the energy of the astrological new year in order to start this next chapter on the right foot and, more importantly, to make it a first step that feels as authentic as possible.
This year the astrological New Year is quickly followed by the New Moon in Aries on March 21 which makes the energizing impact of transit very apparent.
Setting an intention and committing to goals that lead you in the right direction will prepare you to let go of the clutter and the negativity in order to make room for something new.
The beginning of the Astrological New Year in 2023 coincides with the Sun's entry into fiery Aries. Read on to discover how the 4 luckiest zodiac signs will be impacted.
Aries
Not only is it a time to celebrate the beginning of the astrological New Year, but it is also the beginning of the Spring Equinox and the season of your birthday!
There are three reasons why you should have a positive outlook on the course that your life is taking.
This New Year should serve as motivation for you to change your perspective and become more present in the here and now rather than dwelling on what you “could have done” in the past.
You will notice a significant improvement in your life if you make certain behaviors part of your daily routine. Activities such as practicing gratitude, meditating, keeping a journal, and spending time in nature should all be done often, even on a daily basis.
If there's anyone who has the strength and bravery to integrate many different things at once, it's you, Aries.
Since you are the zodiac's most energizing sign, those around you may be inspired to begin placing a higher priority on their own health because of your grounding practices.
Let's hope this new year will be about developing your natural leadership qualities and assisting others in doing the same. Being a symbol of love to those around you is often the most charitable thing you can do.
This astrological new year will be largely about being an inspiration to others through the way in which you prioritize your own responsibilities.
Make sure to celebrate life. Get everyone together for a daytime event like a picnic in the park or going out in the woods and watching a movie together. Those around you will be more likely to catch your positive attitude and social energy.
Gemini
This new astrological year marks an important and powerful time to dedicate yourself fully to achieving your goals.
You were probably already feeling the pressure to be more focused and efficient prior to Saturn's entry into Pisces, on March 7.
Nevertheless, the Aries energy of this new astrological year will spark a fire within you, causing you to feel inspired by the projects, relationships, and introspection that you need to focus on rather than feeling intimidated.
A period of dedication is not a form of punishment; rather, it is an opportunity to learn how to live with respect for yourself and your future.
If you want to make sure that this future does not include feelings of isolation, exhaustion, or stress, commit yourself to building a life where you're free from these things.
Gemini, this astrological new year is all about learning that you can't get what you want by doing the opposite. Learn to let go of old routines.
As a way to celebrate the beginning of the astrological new year, sit down and make a list of all the ways in which you have sabotaged yourself over the course of the previous year.
Something as simple as “dressing to impress rather than how I wanted to” or “saying yes to projects when I really wanted to say no.”
After that, burn that list, and flush the ashes in the toilet. The new year is not the time to repeat any of these habits.
Leo
The start of the astrological new year will have a significant impact on you. Get ready for the life you have worked so hard to achieve, as it will be a time full of new opportunities for you professionally and romantically.
Instead of presuming that this year will be the same as the previous year, what if you began doing activities in that could potentially turn into new habits, ways of thinking, and routines?
Find some form of commitment that you enjoy doing enough to follow through with it, try to eat at least one nutritious, healthy meal that you've prepared yourself every day, and get up every morning and write down three things you're grateful for.
This astrological new year will make you realize you're the leader of the pack, and that you should stop trying to imitate what everyone else is doing.
This change will first become apparent to you on the inside, and then it will begin to manifest itself on the outside, where it will be noticed by others. You will shine, and this new year should serve as a timely reminder that change is always possible.
Investing in your health is a great way to celebrate the start of the new astrological year. Find a new healthy recipe that you are interested in preparing, and then buy all of the necessary ingredients for a fun night out with your loved ones.
Libra
Your life is about to undergo a significant transformation as a result of the astrological new year. This year, the nodes of fate will be in your sign and your sister sign, Aries.
This indicates that you will flourish in 2023 and even further after that. The opportunities that will present themselves to you throughout this year will make you feel energized and deeply moved.
You may find that your relationships, your family, or your career reach new heights, and it will be an eye-opening time for you to reflect on all of the hard work that has brought you to this crucial time when you will begin to reap the rewards of your work.
Start your spring cleaning early because the Full Moon is coming in a few weeks, on April 6th. Organize your cabinets, drawers, and closet by removing any clutter.
By doing this, there will be more space in your energy field for abundance to come to you in the form of love, friendship, money, and other things.
